[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 318342, member: 1233"] I am sorry your husband doesn't seem to understand that your difficult child refuses the group home. I really hope he can accept some other options, because if husband doesn't get new ideas and/or difficult child refuses all of them, then those two men will miss the best thing in their life - YOU. I really think that while husband is gone you need to either get a hasp and lock or long chain (if one can go through the handles of the freezer/fridge) and lock. Lock up all the food. Key or combo lock that ONLY YOU can open. Tell husband that he can have a key or the combo AFTER he gets difficult child moved into the group home or some other situation. I don't think, given the antics your difficult child has already shown this year, that difficult child will truly pass his classes. Unless the teachers all give him passing grades to get him out of their hair. I don't think difficult child WANTS to graduate because then he will have to be more responsible for himself and his bills. Is there someone you and husband are comfortable with to help you communicate with each other so that your anger and frustration, and husband's inability to understand can both be talked about? I am familiar with your struggles. I personally can rarely eat more than a very small portion at a time. I can usually get at least 3 meals out of what I take home from a rare restaurant meal. Somehow my family always decides that the meat needs to be eaten by them and my husband has little won't power for any form of potato. Sorry no concrete answers except the lock and commiseration.
